<br /><br />Ex James and Dawn Minette collection
<br /><br />I enjoy this piece because of its clarity, the presence of a dominant crystal and the pleasing color. Although fluorite is perceived as a common mineral and although some collectors shy away from it for this reason, it continues to be one of the two most highly sought after species among seasoned collectors; the tourmaline group is also highly sought after.</p>
